Toilet seats

There are a variety of toilet seats available, and it's worth looking at what's available rather than making a quick choice. A basic toilet seat can be found in a variety of colours and styles that will match just about any bathroom or home style, but there are now other options available that can help make your life easier.

For example, if you have a toilet that's been designed to be accessible to disabled people, there are specialist seats available for them. One can also find WC seats that have a slow or soft close mechanism, which may sound frivolous but can be a godsend if you've ever been woken up by someone dropping the seat into position in the middle of the night!

If you like traditional styles, you can still find a wooden WC seat available for purchase, and in common with all toilet seats available through Trade Plumbing, they're quick and easy to install. It's normally a quick job for someone with basic household tools, and you're unlikely to need professional assistance to replace an existing toilet seat, though you may if you're upgrading an entire toilet.

Wooden Toilet Seats were once popular, but are being replaced by minimalist, easy-to-clean plastic seats, which are warmer to sit on. Often, the plastic that the toilet seat is made of has additional hygiene additives that help to kill off bacteria.

Funky Colours and Fun Designs were a trend that was popular in the first decade of the 21st Century, but with minimalism making a return, the major call is again for white toilet seats so that the design can be concentrated on accent colours from bathroom accessories.

Toilet seats now come with a number of solutions for the homeowner - from top-fixing toilet seats when no access to the underside of the toilet is possible - to soft-close hinges to prevent things that go bump in the night.
